Post Shingles pain is much better, however, left foot is still numb. Will this ever go away? Any treatment suggestions?

Yes, the pain with "eventually" go away, but it may take quite awhile. The nerve endings there are quite sensitive and this type of neuralgic pain is tenacious. In our practice, we use a compounded cream of all FDA approved ingredients that works impressively well for this condition. You did not state what current medications you are taking and that would be helpful.
